With everything that's going on with Zimbabwe in terms of human rights, should organisers of the cricket world cup really have allowed Zimbabwe to qualify? Doesn't it send out a whole political hypocrisy - "we'll threaten sanctions on your nation, condemn your leader but we'll allow you to play in the world cup!"
Also cricketweb's nation stats also state Zimbabwe as a "parliamentary democracy", this is contrary to the truth as Mugabe appoints the last thirty or so members of the parliament himself during election, which by default makes his nation an autocracy.
